SHOP MODERN MAE

There's something about returning to this space that grounds me. I started Modern Mae in 2020. It started as a digital magazine that housed everything from interior design inspo to random prose and poetry I'd written. I collaborated with amazing photographers to share their stories and creativity with the Modern Mae audience. It essentially hasn't changed. But full stop, I got tired of the polished look, the curation of it all. As a writer and creative, the joy for me is in the organic, messiness of the process. Before Modern Mae, that's what I shared- prose with scratch-outs and scribbles. It was messy and motivating to have the product and process on display. Instead of starting something totally new and deleting this place that has become a part of my creative identity, I'm bring the free flow and expression home to Modern Mae.

I don't have a plan. No agenda. Just me, the occasional pen-to-paper moments, and sharing what feels right. One day it might be something I drew (don't get excited. this ain't cute) or art I love. The next it might be a half-finished DIY project or some words I needed to get out. Don't be surprised if you see a collage of "what I saw on a walk today."

No matter what ends up here, I'm excited to have Modern Mae as my own. No pressure. Just freedom to share. I hope you find a treasure or two in the spontaneity of it all.

Side note: One thing that will not change is the gorgeous branding. To say I'm still obsessed with Tiereny's brilliant design is an understatement. That double m might get tatted on me at some point.
